<VV> 1965 Corsa Sticker

FWIW, I once ordered a copy of my '67 Monza's window sticker from Triple A
Enterprises. Figured it would be good to have a copy made (my car still has
its original window sticker on the window). I sent him a perfect layout of
exactly how it appears on my car, right down to the letter, and told him
that I'd copied it directly from the original. Instead, he printed it out
how HE wanted it to look, not how it actually was. When I requested that he
redo it and make it accurate, he got snitty about it.

Bottom line is that his work may not be exactly accurate. And I KNOW that
the Jim Osborn blanks are NOT perfect, either, even if he owns the
GM-granted rights to reproduce them. My '69 blanks ARE accurate. And NO, I
won't sell blanks, just completed ones. I can do '60, 4, 7, and 9 stickers,
along with ALL 'brier stickers. Unfortunately for now, I have to use
Osborn's inferior blanks for all but the '69's. And I welcome anyone who
has an original sticker or wants "custom" work done. I aim to please, and
to be as accurate as I possibly can be.

Just thought you all would like to know.
